You are not the only one. I had a friend that worked at Pepboys. Tons of warranty claims on them..
3x as much as their bosh batteries.
I have been using an exide orbital for my GTO. It's been great so far.

Just to clear up the DEKA models:
The EXT16L has the polarities flipped.
We need the EXT16 (no 'L') for the S2k.
Correct me if I'm wrong but the previous posts confuse this and even the pictures posted show a EXT16.

Both will work. I actually used both the ETX16 and ETX16L and found the "L" version to work best for my setup. I needed another battery for my Subaru so used the ETX16 for that.
The "L" posts end up in a better spot for my setup - I did get rid of the batt tray and made some brackets.
However if you use the OEM location then the ETX16 is better. But it's nice to get rid of a full 10 lbs when you get rid of the tray.
